New post: "Why are young women increasingly left-wing?" There's been a lot of focus on young men + the right but less on this much bigger political shift amongst young women. Why is it happening? How could it change politics? (Ā£/free trial)

Over 2+ years of working on a biography of Elon Musk, I've learned that his ambitions are significantly grander than anyone realizes. He wants to be the first trillionaire ever. He wants to be the most famous human who ever lived. He wants to rule the world. He wants to live forever. All literally.

It's helpful that in Maine the decision to disqualify Trump was made by the Sec. of State, chosen by the legislature. It neutralizes complaints about the courts, and arguably neutralizes the "political question" dodge. The two states now presenting the issue got there through different procedures.
